I love lighting. I especially love what's happening with LED lighting for the home.

My latest infatuation is with Edge Lighting's Soft Line, a flexible strip of LEDs that can provide lighting under a counter, behind a mirror, along the edges of a ceiling cove or in any number of other places.

Graf Growers Garden Center will offer pumpkin painting on weekends during October. Hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. You buy the pumpkin; Graf's will supply the paint and clean up the mess.
